Santa Monica Earthquake – 3.6 Magnitude

Yep, that was an earthquake. If you live on the westside in LA, and you’re burning the midnight oil, that jolt at 2:17AM was a 3.6 magnitude quake with an epicenter in the Santa Monica Bay. Check out the earthquakes.usgs.gov site for more info.

This one wasn’t all that crazy, but there was a quick burst that must’ve woken a lot of people up. Anyway, no cause for alarm. Go back to bed.
